+# Write a script that accepts a number and returns the Excel Column Name it represents and vice-versa.
+
+# Excel columns start at A and increase lexicographically
+# using the 26 letters of the English alphabet,
+# A..Z. After Z, the columns pick up an extra “digit”,
+# going from AA, AB, etc.,
+# which could (in theory) continue to an arbitrary number of digits.
+# In practice, Excel sheets are limited to 16,384 columns.
+#
+#
+# Example
+# Input Number: 28 Output: AB
+# Input Column Name: AD Output: 30
